5 x 8 SpeedBrace shelf bracket from Fastcap is a workstation and countertop bracket that supports a load rating of 1,000 lb per pair, which helps handle substantial shelf or countertop weight in shop, garage, or workroom layouts. The bracket size of 5 inches by 8 inches sets a compact footprint, which fits smaller overhangs or utility shelves where space is tight but strength is still important. Its black finish gives the metal bracket a low-profile look, which helps the support visually recede under darker tops or shelving runs. The manufacturer classifies this part in workstation and countertop brackets, which directs it toward structural support roles rather than light-duty decorative use. The Fastcap SB-5X8BL part number and SAP description SPEED BRACE,5'X8' BLACK identify it clearly in ordering systems, which helps match multiple brackets consistently across a project.
The 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 notching system for quick alignment and installation shapes how this 5 x 8 inch SpeedBrace bracket positions against framing, because the cut profile keys into layout marks spaced on that grid. On the FASB58 Series, the notching dimension of 3/4 x 1-1/2 refines that shape, which influences how the bracket nests to studs or support rails. Countersunk screw holes control the seating of fasteners into the metal, which keeps the bracket faces flush against walls and under shelves for better contact. The ability to orient the bracket using either long or short side adds layout flexibility, because the installer can choose which leg projects under the surface and which mounts to the support, matching different shelf depths and wall conditions.
The Fastcap SB-5X8BL SpeedBrace bracket load rating at 1,000 lb per pair positions it for workstation and countertop brackets work where shelves or tops carry concentrated loads, because paired brackets can support heavy tools, supplies, or materials. Its 5 inch by 8 inch format sets modest projection depths, which fits compact shop benches, smaller countertops, or utility shelving where overhang is limited but structural support is still necessary. The product class listing under workstation and countertop brackets points it toward structural support of horizontal surfaces, which ties its use to wood, composite, or similar tops installed in shops, garages, or storage areas. The black finish works well visually under darker work surfaces, which keeps the support visible enough for service yet discreet in finished spaces.
The 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 notching system for quick alignment and installation directly supports fast, repeatable layout, because those notches reference common framing dimensions when spacing brackets along studs or rails. For the FASB58 Series, the 3/4 x 1-1/2 notch sizing fine-tunes that interface, which lets the bracket sit in a defined pocket that resists shifting as screws are driven. Cable management holes turn the structural support into a routing path, which keeps power and data cords running along the bracket rather than sagging under the shelf, improving access to the work surface. Countersunk screw holes pull fastener heads below the surface of the metal, which prevents hardware from interfering with how a shelf or countertop bears on the bracket leg. Orientation flexibility between the long or short side lets the installer adapt the same 5 x 8 SpeedBrace shelf bracket to different top depths, which reduces part variety while keeping consistent support geometry throughout the project.
The SB-5X8BL SpeedBrace is a 5 inch x 8 inch workstation and countertop bracket, so it is intended to support shelves or tops in structural applications rather than light-duty decorative use.
The 5 x 8 SpeedBrace shelf bracket has a load rating at 1,000 lb per pair, which allows pairs to handle dense materials and heavily loaded shelves in many shop or workspace layouts.
The 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 notching system creates a defined registration point against framing or rails, which speeds bracket alignment and keeps multiple supports on a consistent layout line.
This SpeedBrace uses FASB Anchors that are designed to be used with metal studs, which links the bracket system to metal stud wall construction in commercial or shop spaces.
The countersunk screw holes let screws sit below the metal surface, which keeps the bracket faces smooth so shelves or countertops sit flat without rocking on exposed fastener heads.
The cable management holes provide routes for cords and cables, which keeps wiring supported along the bracket rather than hanging loose under shelves or work surfaces.
The 5 x 8 SpeedBrace shelf bracket, black finish, from Fastcap combines a 1,000 lb per pair load rating with a 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 notching system, which ties strength to faster, more consistent alignment. The workstation and countertop brackets classification focuses this SB-5X8BL model on structural roles under shelves and tops, which suits shop, garage, or commercial layouts needing compact yet robust support. With cable management holes, countersunk screw holes, and orientation using either long or short side, this bracket supports cleaner wiring and flexible mounting geometry. For projects matching its 5 inch by 8 inch format and black finish, this SpeedBrace offers a defined, repeatable support solution.
